The morning started off gray
and imposing at the Annual HBA
Golf Classic presented by Fergu-
son Enterprises and KitchenAid,
but by the end of play, everyone
was dried out and spirits were
lifted (thanks in no small part to
our beverage sponsors – East-
bank Contractor Appliances!) One
hundred and forty four players
took their shot at the title for the
top team prizes as well as several
individual tournament events in-
cluding Men’s andWomen’s Long
Drive, the Long Putt, and Closest
to the Pin. Following play, golfers
and sponsors gathered for a BBQ
chicken lunch and announce-
ments of the day’s big winners.
This year’s Money Shot KP on
hole #14 was a tough competi-
tion, with winner Andrew Scheidt
taking home $300 in the annual
50/50. Another big winner for the
day was Curt Nelson from Lewis
Audio Video who took home the
highly coveted 43” Flat Screen TV
from Standard TV & Appliance!

Congratulations to all of our Winners!
Summer nights in Oregon are
beautiful. We couldn’t have asked
for amore perfect evening to invite
our first guests onto the Street of
Dreams to celebrate the accom-
plishment of our builders, organiz-
ers and all who came together to
make this years’ Street of Dreams
a success. Golden sunlight high-
lightedbeautiful food, funkymusic,
many toasts and a fabulous turn-
out to support the Home Builders
Foundation.
The Block Party event, the pre-
opening charity party for the NW
Natural Street of Dreams, was held
on an idealistic Oregon evening in
late July. This event brings a huge
number of individuals and groups
from our industry together in a
venuewherewe all relax, enjoy and
celebrate.
We celebrate a show that has
endured, survived and come back
strong – 38 consecutive years
strong – and this year’s show of
nine gorgeous homes is a testa-
ment to the renewal of our industry.
We celebrate the tremendous
good in what our industry does –
not just at the Street of Dreams, but
throughout the region – in provid-
ing housing and working hard to
make sure everyone canget decent
shelter and ultimately a home they
can call their own.
And we celebrate the friendships
that have been built along with the
homes.
Almost 1,300 people attended
this year’s event, and the fun carni-
val décor, photo booth and signa-
ture limeade cocktail added to the
festive feel of the evening.
The Block Party at the 2013 NW Natural
Street of Dreams entertained with fine
food, music and friends
Colorful crowds dressed in their summer
finest enjoyed the nine gorgeous homes,
fabulous food on the VIP Deck and super
music from Patrick Lamb. As the sun set
on the opening night of the 2013 NW
Natural Street of Dreams, over $5000
dollars had been raised for the Home
Builders Foundation to support shelter
development in the year to come.
Oh what a night!
